Fort Robinson, Military fort and National Historic Landmark in Crawford, Nebraska
Fort Robinson spans 22,000 acres in the Pine Ridge region, featuring historic military buildings, nine fishing ponds, and extensive trail networks.
The fort served as a crucial military post during the Sioux Wars from 1876 to 1890, where Crazy Horse surrendered with his followers in 1877.
The Fort Robinson Museum displays military artifacts and chronicles the history of Native American relations, cavalry regiments, and World War II activities.
Visitors can reserve cabins, lodge rooms, and camping spots, participate in Jeep tours, stagecoach rides, and explore 60 miles of hiking trails.
The fort transformed into the world's largest quartermaster remount depot after World War I, breeding and training horses and mules for military operations.
